Gary Ford

Service Manager

I joined Swanton Care and Community in October 2022 as Service Manager for Southfield House. I have worked in care and support services most of my adult life, experiencing roles as support worker, team leader, deputy manager and then service manager. I have over 15 years’ experience of operational management of care and support services in a wide variety of settings across the central belt of Scotland.

So far in my career I have enjoyed achieving my qualifications of SVQ Level 4 in Health and Social Care and SVQ Level 4 in Management and Leadership. I am also a registered manager with the Scottish Social Services Council.

I am passionate about the care and support we give to the people we support, and look forward to guiding and building on the ongoing development of the support staff in our services. I am excited to be leading the Southfield House team in continuing to deliver person centred care to the young people who live here so they can achieve their goals and aspirations, driving forward with the Swanton Ethos.

David Brand

Divisional Director

I joined Swanton Care and Community in July 2019 as Interim Regional Director and became Registered Manager of Southfields a short time later. During early 2024 I was then promoted to Divisional Director of Scotland. I have over 18 years operational management experience across all sectors of health and social care in Scotland. Professionally, I remain a Registered Mental Health nurse and as such I also lead and coordinate our Mental Health First Aiders across all of our services nationally.

My drive is to lead and support my team to provide person led care through empowering the people we support to achieve their potential and aspirations in life. We work in collaboration with all our partners in order to provide the very best service we can. As a former Scots Guardsman, I feel it is important to make a difference in young people’s lives and have been an Adult Volunteer with the Army Cadet Force for several years.
